jackson mich. Patriot; We are often
told that the tariff lowers prices. Was it
not the tariff that changed the price of
steel rails from $25 ton in 1885 to $l2
ton in 1887? The tariff IS $l7 ton, aud
in the fall of 1885 the manufacturers met,
formed combination to prevent compe-
ttion, and resolved to put up the price.
The lawful result Is an advance to tho
full extent of the tariff bounty voted
them. For year ard a half, supported
as they are by law, they have had cor
ner on the home market just as Infamous
as and more expensive than that of the
coffee Spectators The advantage of
the steelrail gamblers is that they have

wondsrfal ingenuity Of nfonkey,,

An officer stationed at Kalladgee, In
India, was once climbing o rocky hill
when he, and a native who accompanied
him, witnessed the following episode. A
poor monkey was being slowly entrapped
In the voluminous folds OF an enormous
boa, It's bones breaking like pipe stems
by the pressure. Gradually the reptile
nnwound itself, leaving q crushed, un-
recognizable mass.
The numerous monkeys on the rock

powerless to help their comrade. While
tho snake was commencing It's gorge and
before its body began to fill and SWELL
the officer and native went In quest Of q
to make 1t an easy prey as soon as It
should be filled to repletion.
When they returned to the scene OF
strife, the boa lay thoroughly gorged, be-
Meath projecting mass of elf, looking
more like a log than anything more lively.
On the summit above, troop of mon
keys was assembled, and three or four Of
the largest and strongest were occupied
In displacing massive fragment of rock,
already loosened by the rains from the
main ledge.

with silence quite unusual to monkeys
they at length succeeded In pushing the
rock until 1t trembled just over the boa's
head; then, uttering O yell of triumph,
they dropped 1t over the miniature preci-
pice. 1t struck the boa on the head,
MASKING 1t to jelly. As its great tall

struggle, there was general chorus OF

LoyE-MAKIEa IN JAPAN.
Grscefal swesthearting customs.

In houses wherein reside one or more
daughters of marriageable age an empty
flower pot of an ornamental character is
eneircled by ring and suspended from
the window or yeranda by three light
chains. Now the Juliets of Japan are oil
course, attractive, and their Romeos as
anxious as those of other lands.
But instead of serenadcs by moonlight
and other delicate ways OF making an
impression, 1t is etiquette for the
japanese lover to approach the dwelling
OF his lady bearing some choice plant in
his hand This takes place at a time
when he is fully assured that both mother
and daughter are at home, and l need
scarcely say that neither of them is at all
conscious that the young man is taking
such liberty with the flower pot outside
of their window.
1t is believed that young lover SO en-
gagged has never been seen by his lady or
her mamma In this act of sacrilege--at
any rate. my friend tells me that during
his long residence in Japan he never
heard of one being interfered with In any
way. The fact is, this act of placing a
pretty plant into the empty flower pot Is
equivalent to proposal to the young
lady who dwells within. and this eastern
fashion is, as l think, delicate and
most harmless way Of proposing to a
lady.
The youthful gardener, having settled
his plant to his mind retires, and the
lady is free to act as she pleases. II he
Is the right man she takes every care of
his gift, waters 1t, tends 1t carefully with
her own hands, that all the world may
see In a word, that the donor Is an ac-
ceptcd sutton. But IL he Is not favorite,
or II stern parents object the poor plant
Is torn from the vase, and the next morn
ing lies limp and withered on the ver-
anita or on the path below. Home

Rough Story OF an old Rabblt.

Here 10 story which beats the old
dog stories hollow. According to M. La
border, writer In the Revue Scientlfque,
a rabbit. one OF the ordinary tame spe-
cies, was bought for purposes OF expert
ment at the Physiological Laboratory In
Paris, and after portion OF the facial
nerve had been removed twas left to run
about he laboratory.
II very soon recovered from the effect
of the operation, and was for four years
III. Laborde's afiectionate companions. II
would await at the top OF the stairs his
arrival In the morning, and would somc-
times run to meet him. Whenever 1t had
the opportunity the rabbit would Jump
upon his knee, and 1t was as fond OF
caresses as cat.
During the progress OF an experiment
1t would sit on the operating table watch
ing the proceedings with every appear
ance OF interest. Bunny's chief delight
was In microscopical examination.
As soon as NJ. Laborde put his eye to
the microscope, the rabbit would perch
on his shoulders and endeavor TO take Il
peep. This wonderful animal lived on
terms OF the most intimate friendship
with two dogs belonging TO the labora-
tory; but when a strange dog arrived he
invariably turned 1t out, and sometimes
chased 1t along the street Nor did no
show himself very friendly to unfamiliar
bipcd visitors. II Pail Mall Gazette.

the little Prince: he refuses to have his
face washed In the morning."
Does he 2" answered the Crown
Prince '.Well remedy that. After this
let him 60 unwashed."
" 1t shall be done,' said the governor.
Now the sentries have to salute every
member OF the royal family children
and all-whenever they pass. The day
after, the little four-year-old Prince went
out for walk with his governor. As
they passed sentry-box where a grim
soldier stood, the man stood rigid without
presenting arms.
The little PrInce--accustomed to uni
versal Aforementioned displeascd, bat
said nothing. Presently another sentry
was passed. Neither did this one give a
sign OF recognition. The little Prince
angrily spoke of 1t to his old governor,
and they passed In. And when the walk
was finished, and they had met many
soldiers, who none OF them saluted the
Prince. the little fellow dashed into his
father exclaiming:
Papa -papa--you must whip every
man In your guards They refuse to

'they do rightly; for clean soldiers never
salute dirty little Prince" After that

Big Feat in RalIroadlng.

" You can talk all you please about big
feats In railroading. said Western con-
ductor. "but guess we can beat 'em
all. Our trackmen have been engaged
for some time In Strengthening out the
track and shortening curves. Our super
intendent Is hustler, ! want you to
know, and the other day he determined
to reduce the distance between Smith
Vile and Union five miles,"
In one day."
Yes. sir, In one day. It isn't every
road that can afford improvements OF that
magnitude. But our line is making
money now, and the superintendent
said we had used that long track long
enough"
But how did he manage to do the
Job so quick? Must have taken several
thousand men?"
"oh, no; one man did the whole
thing. 1t took him about ten minutes.
You see. when our road was first built
traffic was light and profit doubtful. So
the distance between stations was put
down on the time card at from one to
five miles greater than IL was. OF course.
all passengers were charged three cents .
mile according to the distance. Our
directors declared many dividend on
the strength Of those extra es."-[Om-
